Coinbase 承诺在 2026 年中期选举之前向 Pro-Crypto Super PAC Fairshake 提供 2500 万美元

全球最大的加密货币交易所 Coinbase 已经在展望下周的总统选举，并计划影响 2026 年中期选举

Coinbase is planning to donate $25 million to pro-crypto super PAC Fairshake in 2025, according to FOX Business.

据 FOX Business 报道，Coinbase 计划在 2025 年向支持加密货币的超级 PAC Fairshake 捐赠 2500 万美元。

The donation will be used to influence the 2026 midterm elections and is part of Coinbase’s ongoing effort to keep crypto a key part of the political conversation.

这笔捐款将用于影响 2026 年中期选举，也是 Coinbase 持续努力让加密货币成为政治对话关键部分的一部分。

Coinbase’s latest donation brings the company’s total political spending to $75 million.

Coinbase 的最新捐款使该公司的政治支出总额达到 7500 万美元。

Coinbase is one of the largest corporate political spenders in the 2024 election cycle, with more than $50 million donated to various super PACs that are supporting congressional candidates who are favorable of the $2 trillion digital asset industry.

Coinbase 是 2024 年选举周期中政治支出最大的企业之一，向各种超级政治行动委员会捐赠了超过 5000 万美元，这些超级政治行动委员会正在支持那些支持价值 2 万亿美元数字资产行业的国会候选人。

Coinbase's contributions make up 30% of the more than $170 million donated this year by U.S. crypto giants, like blockchain payments company Ripple and venture capitalist firm Andreessen Horowitz.

Coinbase 的捐款占区块链支付公司 Ripple 和风险投资公司 Andreessen Horowitz 等美国加密巨头今年捐赠的超过 1.7 亿美元的 30%。

"We’re in it for the long haul, and we're putting our money where our mouth is and putting a down payment for the ’26 cycle," Coinbase Chief Policy Officer Faryar Shirzad told FOX Business.

Coinbase 首席政策官 Faryar Shirzad 告诉福克斯商业频道：“我们是长期投资，我们正在言出必行，并为 26 周期支付首付。”

In addition to the donation, Coinbase is also pledging to help its affiliated advocacy group, Stand with Crypto (SWC), double its membership from 1.8 million to 4 million advocates between now and the midterms.

除了捐款外，Coinbase 还承诺帮助其附属倡导团体 Stand with Crypto (SWC)，从现在到中期，将其会员人数从 180 万增加一倍至 400 万。

SWC has helped educate and mobilize pro-crypto voters over the past year through lobbying efforts in the swing states of Arizona, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Michigan and Wisconsin.

过去一年，SWC 通过在亚利桑那州、宾夕法尼亚州、内华达州、密歇根州和威斯康星州等摇摆州的游说活动，帮助教育和动员支持加密货币的选民。

According to its website, more than 400,000 users have engaged with SWC's voter registration tool, and the organization has helped register over 100,000 voters in swing states.

根据其网站，超过 40 万用户使用了 SWC 的选民登记工具，该组织已帮助摇摆州超过 10 万选民进行登记。

"I feel like, even without knowing the results of the election, crypto has already won," Shirzad said.

“我觉得，即使不知道选举结果，加密货币也已经赢了，”希尔扎德说。

"The number of candidates who are now talking about crypto, who’ve taken pro-crypto positions, the ability that the process has given us to talk to candidates from the presidential all the way down to lower offices, has been extraordinary."

“现在谈论加密货币、采取支持加密货币立场的候选人数量非常多，这一过程使我们能够与从总统一直到下级办公室的候选人进行交谈，这是非同寻常的。”

Coinbase is betting that crypto will be a key issue for voters in the 2024 election.

Coinbase 押注加密货币将成为 2024 年选举中选民的关键问题。

With one in five Americans now owning some form of digital asset, the so-called crypto voter bloc could have a meaningful impact Tuesday as voters head to the ballot box to choose the candidates they feel best represent their financial interests.

由于五分之一的美国人现在拥有某种形式的数字资产，随着选民前往投票箱选择他们认为最能代表其经济利益的候选人，所谓的加密选民联盟可能会在周二产生有意义的影响。

A recent Harris Poll, done in partnership with crypto asset manager Grayscale, revealed that around 56% of all voters are more likely to vote for a candidate who is "informed about crypto" compared to one who is not.

最近与加密资产管理公司 Grayscale 合作进行的哈里斯民意调查显示，与不了解加密货币的候选人相比，大约 56% 的选民更有可能投票给“了解加密货币”的候选人。

Former President Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, has picked up on the potential power of the crypto voter and has been courting the industry with promises of looser regulation and to make the U.S. “the crypto capital of the world.”

共和党总统候选人、前总统特朗普已经意识到了加密货币选民的潜在力量，并一直以放松监管并使美国成为“世界加密货币之都”的承诺来吸引该行业。

Vice President Kamala Harris, who became the Democratic nominee in July, has been less vocal about where she stands on crypto but has made some statements that suggest she would be supportive of deploying rules of the road so the industry can keep growing in the U.S.

副总统卡玛拉·哈里斯 (Kamala Harris) 在 7 月份成为民主党候选人，虽然她对加密货币的立场较少直言不讳，但发表了一些声明，表明她将支持部署道路规则，以便该行业能够在美国保持增长

While some critics, like Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., have blasted the industry for using its coffers to sway the election to get a favorable return in Washington, Shirzad says the industry is helping give the crypto community a voice.

尽管马萨诸塞州民主党参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦 (Elizabeth Warren) 等一些批评人士批评该行业利用金库影响选举，以在华盛顿获得有利的回报，但 Shirzad 表示，该行业正在帮助加密货币社区发出自己的声音。

"The fact that 400,000 people signed up as crypto advocates in the two weeks leading up to the FIT21 crypto bill vote in Congress in June gives you a sense of how real the passion is in the community," he said. "So, for sure, there's an industry that's involved in all of this, but the much more powerful part of this is the grassroots. And I think anybody who thinks that they can ignore that percentage of the population, I think, is kidding themselves."

“在 6 月份 FIT21 加密法案在国会投票之前的两周内，有 40 万人注册成为加密货币倡导者，这一事实让你感受到社区的热情是多么真实，”他说。 “所以，可以肯定的是，有一个行业参与了所有这一切，但其中更强大的部分是草根阶层。我认为，任何认为自己可以忽视这一比例人口的人都是在自欺欺人。 ”。
